Vietnam is one of Asia's most balanced destinations, pairing natural beauty with reasonable cost, and it works equally well for families and couples.
The main regions
Hanoi and Ha Long Bay
The old quarter and historic landmarks, followed by a cruise among the limestone islands of Ha Long. The best choice for families who want a complete experience.
Suggested Rizen programmes
Vietnam Family 7 Nights — Hanoi & Ha Long Bay
A seven-night family programme between Hanoi and Ha Long Bay: museums and temples, Ha Long's islands, the Old Quarter and a shopping day with Ho Tay Water Park.
Da Nang and Hoi An
Wide beaches, the Dragon Bridge, and the lantern-lit old town of Hoi An — a comfortable mix of coast and city.
Phu Quoc
A calm island with modern resorts, ideal for relaxation and honeymoons.
Suggested Rizen programmes
Vietnam Honeymoon 6 Nights — Da Nang & Hoi An
A honeymoon between Da Nang's golden beaches and the lantern-lit lanes of Hoi An — the Golden Bridge at Ba Na Hills, basket-boat rides through coconut forests and an island cruise.
How many nights do you need?
- Six nights: two cities at most.
- Seven nights or more: you can add a domestic flight between north and south.
Practical tips
- Domestic flights are short and reasonably priced, saving long hours on the road.
- Book Ha Long cruises as part of the programme to avoid peak-season crowds.
- Food is varied, and halal options are available in the main cities.
